Working for the One Percent Video (MV)

Now they'll teach you up in college
The lower grades as well
How the purpose of your knowledge
Is to learn to buy and sell
And do your duty as a citizen
And it's a duty heaven sent
Learn to make your living while you're
Working for the one percent
Take your banker's easy landing
You paid him more that he was worth
And that's past your understanding
Kinda' like the virgin birth
Yes, a mystery to anyone
Who missed the main event?
When they ratified the golden rule
You're working for the one percent
Now candidates remind us
And winners just as much
How that money game can blind us
To who has the Midas touch
Yes, and who it is that gets the gold
And do they own, or do they rent
Well one thing that's for certain
They'll be working for the one percent
'Cause if you've got more money
You'll get more money it's plain to see
And those that got it and know how to get it
Keep the secrets from you and from me
But don't you worry that's how it should be
If you're part of a market that's free
Now professional thinkers all seem to agree
That the economy's run by the head of the class
The cream of the cream and the stars of the sea
Know better than you so don't be a jackass
Don't question or hinder unlimited growth
Don't wonder if more for the rich should be fair
They're smarter than you and they've taken the oath
Of sacred devotion to stockholder share
And it's working for them so who could deny
That more of the same is the best way to go
But its circular logic so don't even try
Just take a good look at who's running the show
History will guide us
Geography will shine
A light on what divides us
In this holy grand design
And the lesson to be learning
I could say without dissent
All those dividends and earning
Have been working for the one percent
All those dividends and earning
Have been working for the one percent
